Under the rule of Mughals, several Amrohvis secured esteemed
positions in the Mughal court and the armed forces. In addition to the
monuments and buildings built by these Mansabdars with the economic assistance
of the Mughals, Amroha also imported some exclusive ingredients of Mughal
culture. Degh ka Salan (Meat cooked in a huge vessel) generally
called Qorma is one of the dishes that we acquired from the Mughal cuisine.
Yakhni Wali Biryani is also an exclusive part of this cuisine. Qorma
is usually served with Tandoori Roti , called as Naan in general. This duo of Qorma and Naan is known by the vernacular name Naan-Gosht.
This is the chief dish of the cuisine in all the ceremonial events happening in
Amroha.
You cannot imagine the conclusion of a marriage ceremony without Naan – Gosht where non-veg food is served. Let alone
the marriage ceremonies, Naan- Gosht also remains a part of the cuisine
in various small gatherings and parties. It is most preferred to all other food
items that are served. There use to be a craving for this in the marriage
parties and other ceremonial events.
